New patch 3.04

This is a small update just to fix the bumper kits showing when you have molded or split bumpers.
The proper behavior would be that it does not show your bumper kit when you have a molded or split bumper.

I'm also preparing for an Android phone version to be release soon then an Iphone version right after. As soon as those are release I'll begin releasing new cars which will work on all 3 versions.
There are also more performance updates and new features coming to the web site version after the phone versions are released.

Please PM me if you guys notice issues with this new version I just uploaded.

Changes to URL images

I made some changes on the url that points to your images in your my cars page to prepare the site for the next version.
Everything should look the same to you guys, but any links to the old url will be broken.

This version has the following:
1. Better AI
2. Hop reaction when the car hits the ground and you don't press the switch.
3. The mechanism to allow more wheels is in place and working with 3 wheels now. (Stocks, Bolt ons and OG Wires)
4. More slots if you choose to purchase them. (Up to 20 slots)
5. Radical Challenges.
6. Due to the new version. Street scores will be reset.

There will be another update after this one adding even more features and wheels

I changed the templates for patterns on your cars and added templates for the Lincoln Town car and the Caddilac.
The template change will allow you to add murals to the entire car not just the side, trunk and hood. You can now add textures past the hood and trunk and actually hit the entire roof. Patterns can also go from the top to the side of the car if you do it right. Another thing you can do now is add text on both sides. The old way would come out backwards on one side of the car.
Tutorial:
http://www.thelowridergame.com/articles/lowridergame/26-how-to-add-murals-to-your-cars.html

The max score has been increased. You can now pass 131,000.New Champions System:
You must defend your championship atlease once every 14 days. If you do not defend your championship it will be stripped from you and given to the Winner of the next Championship Tournament. When a user does get stripped there will be a post automatically created to let everyone know about the new tournament.

New how to tutorials section. Earn 30,000 by submitting your own tutorial on any subject

I added another section to the site that will allow you to earn 30,000 dollars in the game by just submitting an article.
On this new page you can view or submit your own how to tutorials to help other people on the site fix their rides and earn cash for the game. Every user is allowed to post an article and have it featured on the site if its approved. When you submit an article and it gets approved your account will automatically receive 30,000 that you can use on anything you want in the game. If you submit an article and cannot find a good category just leave section and category uncategorised and we will move it to the right section when we approve it.

New Upload Picture Section & Chat section
I setup a new picture section which will allow you to upload your own pictures into different categories or your own picture section. You can make your own albums for car builds or just car photos. Here are some links below for the picture section and you can also access it from the main menus.
